To never, never forget

Aaah, this is one of those quotes that make me feel stong, and sad and good and wanting all at the same time. How I wish i could say these words were my own:

"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disaprity of the life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To persue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget."

I wish yo be your friend.
